... the Cambridge ladies do not care, above Cambridge if sometimes in its box of sky lavender and cornerless, the moon rattles like a fragment of angry candy"
– E. E. Cummings)
What is the Absurd? It is, as may quite easily be seen, that I, a rational being, must act in a case where my reason, my powers of reflection, tell me: you can just as well do the one thing as the other, that is to say where my reason and reflection say: you cannot act and yet here is where I have to act... The Absurd, or to act by virtue of the absurd, is to act upon faith ... I must act, but reflection has closed the road so I take one of the possibilities and say: This is what I do, I cannot do otherwise because I am brought to a standstill by my powers of reflection.
– Søren Kierkegaard
Hello there. My name for the purposes of Wikipedia editing is Angry_Candy. It comes from the above stansa of an e.e. Cummings poem called The Cambridge Ladies Who Live in Furnished Souls and by extension a collection of short speculative fiction stories by Harlan Ellison. In the real world, I work in libraries and write for small magazines.
